We have used realistic local interactions based on the recent update of the strangeness $-2$ Nijmegen ESC08c potential to calculate the bound state problem of the $\Xi NN$ system in the $(I)J^P=(\frac{1}{2})\frac{3}{2}^+$ state. We found…

Bosonic two-dimensional self-bound clusters consisting of $N$ atoms interacting through additive van der Waals potentials become unbound at a critical mass m*(N); m*(N) has been predicted to be independent of the size of the system.…
A systematic X-ray survey of the most energetic rotation-powered pulsars known, based on spin-down energy loss rate, $\dot E$ = $I\omega\dot\omega$, shows that all energetic pulsars with $\dot E > \dot E_{c} \approx 3.4 \times\ 10^{36}$ erg…

Three related features of the astrophysical S-factor, (S_{17}), for low energies are an upturn as the energy of the proton goes to zero, a pole at the proton separation energy and a long ranged radial integral peaking at approximately 40…

Resonant capture of antineutrinos can be accomplished by exploiting the monoenergetic antineutrinos emitted in bound state beta-decay. Extending this idea, I explore conditions for recoilless resonant capture in the system 3H - 3He.…
